DIY versus a fish and chip van
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.

FAQs for Emerson Park
What’s the nearest station to Emerson Park?
Emerson Park station, about 0.6 miles south-west of the centre.
Can the van park in Haynes Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
How long does set-up take?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Does the batter contain gluten?
No, not as standard: batter is generally made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac staff and we’ll explain the options before you book.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- A spot near your staff
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Confirmation that the van can park there
Emerson Park is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
Compared with a sandwich platter, fish and chips feels like a real thank-you. A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.

About the food
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.
Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- The menu and how many choices
- Numbers
- The day of the week
- Any minimum charge
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. We set ours out clearly.
Getting an accurate quote
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The venue or postcode
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.
Working with your venue
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
Step by step
On the day, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Once we’re hot, we cook to order, timed around your staff event. For a staff lunch in Emerson Park, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.
- Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Name one person we can call on the day
